Chapter 60 -60 What on Earth Helps Sleep

“It’s not the sound of the piano,” said Old Madam Qin with a smile. “Tiao Chun, what do you think of Xiaozhe?”

“I’m not too sure, but it’s clear that the young master truly cares for Miss Jiang. In the past years, the young master had no desires, lived a life of simplicity and purity, I really thought he might… Seeing him today, he’s not even carrying Buddha Beads, that’s a good thing.”

Old Madam Qin repeated, “That’s a good thing. If I had known, I should have had Jingchen fulfill this marriage contract earlier.”

“Old Madam, it’s not too late now,” Tiao Chun consoled. “If not the sound of the piano, what’s been helping you sleep?”

Medicine was useless.

The aromatherapy Luo Xinyi brought was useless.

Silver ear mushroom could only soothe the mind and strengthen the body, still useless for the Old Madam’s sleep.

What had been making the Old Madam sleep peacefully lately?

Tiao Chun couldn’t figure it out.

Old Madam Qin merely smiled without uttering a word, not responding to her question.

Jiang Zhe stepped outside, and Qin Jingchen personally opened the car door for her. Jiang Zhe boarded the car without surprise, naturally waiting for him to close the door.

As Butler Xu saw this scene once again, he lowered his head and looked away.

After Jiang Zhe got into the car, she started chatting with someone, replying to messages.

Yang Feiliu Can’t Fly: “Are you saying you want to find Gui Lan?”

“Help me look for it, no matter the cost.”

“It’s not so much about money, but Gui Lan is almost extinct. I’ll do my best.”

“Do your best, find it within five months.”

Qin Feng giving birth, she might have to pass through the ghost gates once.

Preparations must be made early.

Yang Feiliu Can’t Fly: “Alright, leave it to me. I’m on a plane, will arrive in Jincheng soon. Let’s put Gui Lan aside for now, I’ve brought some good wine back.”

Halfway through the journey, Old Madam Qin sent a message.

“You’re halfway there, right? I had someone prepare some snacks for you in the car, rest if you’re hungry.”

Only then did Jiang Zhe notice the snacks and beverages of all kinds placed between her and the spot across from Qin Jingchen.

She didn’t type, but instead pressed the voice message button and said, “I see it, thank you, Grandma Qin.”

Old Madam Qin said a few more things, she didn’t type her responses, using voice replies for all.

Occasionally, other people’s messages came in, and she uniformly replied with text.

Qin Jingchen glanced at her, the corners of his lips faintly curved with a smile, softening his typically desireless facade.

Today was Jiang Yunxuan’s birthday.

Jiang Zhe received a message from Jiang Zhang, “Jiang Zhe, come back this evening, your little brother is thinking about you.”

She didn’t reply.

She had already agreed with Jiang Yunxuan that she would come back to help him celebrate his birthday.

It had nothing to do with Jiang Zhang and the Jiang Family.

Perhaps it was because she hadn’t returned for a long time, Jiang Zhang’s phone call came in.

Jiang Zhe declined the call and said to Qin Jingchen, “Just drop me off near the school.”

“Isn’t it a holiday?”

“I’m going back to catch up on schoolwork.”

Qin Jingchen didn’t insist and instructed the driver to drop her off near the school.

Jiang Zhe got out of the car, waved her hand casually as a goodbye, and her slender, tall figure disappeared at the entrance of the complex.

The Lincoln car stopped for a while, then merged back into the flow of traffic and departed.

She returned to that apartment, where Xiao Meng’s belongings were mostly packed up and taken back to school, making the already spacious living room appear even more empty.

A message popped up on her phone, and Jiang Zhe glanced at it.

Yang Feiliu can’t fly: “Xiaozhe, where are you? Come out, I’ll treat you to a drink!”

“Arrived so soon?” Jiang Zhe picked up her phone and asked.

“I finally brought back those bottles of good wine I got this time! Don’t say you won’t join me!”

“Not today.”

Yang Feiliu can’t fly: “Oh, I remember now, today is your little stepbrother’s birthday, right? Fine, I’ll save it for you. We definitely need to go out for a good drink later!”

Jiang Zhe tossed her phone on the sofa, picked up a couple of homework books, and started working on the problems.

Xiao Meng already had plans, but Xia Enci’s grades were still hovering around the passing mark.

After she finished, noticing that it was about time, she packed a small box of candy made by Jiang Xiruo and a bottle of canned food into her backpack and strode out.

There was a bus stop right outside the school. Jiang Zhe got on the bus, busied herself with her phone, and soon, the Jiang family home appeared before her eyes.

The Jiang family lived in a townhouse in the city area, which they had moved into only a few years ago.

The Jiang family fortunes had exploded in the last decade, especially in the past few years as the family’s clothing business soared, catapulting them to the ranks of Jincheng’s elite and multiplying their wealth a hundredfold.

After getting off the bus, from a distance, Jiang Zhe saw Jiang Yunxuan charge towards her like a cannonball and embrace her, nearly knocking her over.

Jiang Zhe patted his head and gestured at his height with her hand; he had grown to her shoulder’s height.

“Growing pretty fast.”

“Of course, I eat a lot so I grow fast!” Jiang Yunxuan had always felt guilty for not being able to protect Jiang Zhe at the Jiang family home and was eager to grow up so he could bring his sister back.

Although he still wasn’t growing fast enough to match Jiang Zhe.

Determined, he decided he would have to eat even more when he got back.

He grabbed Jiang Zhe’s hand, bypassed the main entrance, entered through a side door, then turned left and right, leading her into the Jiang family’s back garden.

The guests today were all gathered in the front hall, so the back garden, with fewer people, was quiet and felt especially comfortable.

“I have a gift for you!” Jiang Yunxuan said excitedly.

“Why would I accept a gift on your birthday?” Jiang Zhe said casually.

“I’m just so happy that you could come on my birthday, of course I have to give you a gift!” Jiang Yunxuan ran inside and came out with an exquisite box, saying excitedly, “For you.”

Jiang Zhe took it, and Jiang Yunxuan urged, “Open it quickly!”

Having no choice, she unwrapped the box and read from the card inside, “A piano, downtown shopping mall.”

“Do you like it?” Jiang Yunxuan asked.

He always knew that Jiang Zhe liked playing the piano, but their mother bought a good piano only for Jiang Fanyue and got Jiang Zhe one for just a few thousand yuan.

Jiang Zhe played less and less over time, and Jiang Yunxuan had been keeping this in mind for a long time before he bought this one.

“I like it,” Jiang Zhe nodded, adding for the starry-eyed boy, “I especially like it.”

Jiang Yunxuan was satisfied, “Then you go pick it up yourself. You must, okay?”

“Definitely.” Jiang Zhe accepted the gift.

Worried that she might not go to pick it up, Jiang Yunxuan explained, “It’s not bought with the Jiang family’s money, I bought it with the money I earned from my part-time job. I do homework for first-year students and they pay me.”

Jiang Zhe slapped the back of his head lightly, “Well done, but don’t do it again next time.”

She took out the candies and canned food from her backpack and handed them to him, “Birthday gift, don’t be polite.”

The packaging was very modest, handcrafted, and casually placed in a pouch.

Jiang Xiruo had made too many for Jiang Zhe, and even after sharing some with Xiao Meng and the others, they couldn’t eat that much.

There was still a stash set aside for Fanyue that was left with Enci, which was also too much.
